The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
EVERYBODY COME TO MY HOUSE TOMORROW EVENING, AROUND 7:30 PM.
WE WILL PLAY VIDEO GAMES IN MY PARENTS' BASEMENT. THERE WILL NOT BE ANY DRINKING (WHICH IS WHY I NEVER OFFERED UP MY PLACE TO BEGIN WITH) BUT I AM TOLD THAT IT IS THEORETICALLY POSSIBLE TO HAVE FUN WHILE YOU ARE SOBER, TOO.
IF WE DECIDE WE WANT TO GO TO A RESTAURANT, WE CAN DO THAT. IF WE DECIDE TO ORDER IN, WE CAN DO THAT. IF WE DECIDE TO DECLARE THAT IT IS REVERSE-RAMADAN, AND WE CAN NO LONGER EAT AT NIGHT, WE CAN DO THAT TOO, JUST DON'T TELL THE MUSLIMS; THEY MIGHT EXPLODE US!
I LIVE IN SILVER SPRING, MD, JUST OUTSIDE OF DC. RIGHT OFF OF RT. 29, AND RIGHT NEAR I-95 AND THE DCBELTWAY, TOO. I AM EASILY ACCESSABILE BY THE DC METRO SYSTEM, IF YOU DON'T MIND TAKING A BUS, AND IF YOU CALL ME, I'LL PROBABLY GO PICK YOU UP FROM THE METRO ANYWAY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THATYOU GO TO EITHER GLENMONT OR SILVER SPRING, BUT REALLY, ANYTHING DOWN ON THAT END OF THE RED LINE IS FINE, LIKE I CAN TOTALLY DO WHEATON OR FOREST GLEN TOO.
IF YOU ARE COMING TO THIS, GIVE ME A CALL, OR TEXT ME. I'M STICKING MY CELL PHONE NUMBER AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST. YOU CAN EMAIL ME TOO, BUT NO GUARANTEE ON HOW QUICKLY I'LL GET BACK TO YOU. ONCE YOU HAVE CONTACTED ME, I WILL GIVE YOU ANY INFORMATION YOU NEED. IF YOU GET MY VOICEMAIL (IT DOESN'T SAY MY NAME, JUST THE PHONE NUMBER) LEAVE A MESSAGE WITH A CALL BACK NUMBER, AND I'LL GET BACK TO YOU ASAP.
I'm down. I really wish me and callius had more than that one magical, random night at random baltimore bar. Hopefully, he leaves us dc/balt. people with something to remember him by (his seed).
I would offer up my place, but it is a teeny tiny condo and my roommate just got a kitten. Maybe think of it as a last resort? Maybe.
Look I'm not going to say that I'm not just arguing semantics. But when the south west crew met up (before the 1st pax) either bogey or 150cc called it the penny arcade extreme

regardless, we were the first.
and when you and I argue, it's not arguing semantics, it's arguing semetics.

I can maybe offer my place but it has two things working against it.
Cons:
in Southern MD about 1.25-1.5 hrs from Baltimore
2 year old child so yelling from 8pm - whenever is out
Pros:
Pool Table
Wii
charcoal grill on the deck
3 acres of open land
whatever goes on though, I'm there
Cool. I'm going to keep up a list of potential locations, and then we can pick the bestone, unless there is some kind of amazing one that shows up and is the OBVIOUS choice.
We ought to start discussing festivities as well. There will of COURSE be the imbibing of Alcohol. We can likely get multiple Wiis going, too. I also havea 360 that I can bring, if need be. I think DSes are a good idea too (we can discuss whic multiplayer games we want to play before hand, so that everyone knows which games to bring.)
Outside of video games (because I am told that there is such a thing) we ought to have food, including vegetarian options for Callius (and Natasha may or may not be Vegan, I can't remember, but sheis at least Vegetarian) but that does not preclude having meat for the canivorous among us. If HochiWaWa is going to be able to make it, I'll talk to him about menu planning type stuff.

So if I manage to swing a flight up on Friday evening and back on Sunday night, would someone a) provide me with a place to sleep and b) provide me with transportation?

No. Well, unless she then said "what's a dickfer".

I can look into it.
My parents have a strict "no girls spending the night" policy at our house, but if I bug them enough in advance, and make it clear that A) you're just a friend, and you have no where else to go, I might be able to talk them into it.
I can at least offer transportation.

S'mores always seem like a good idea until you start eating them. I like them and all, but man, they are amazingly filling...and bad for you.
you know what's better than S'mores?
S'mores Pie.
Get one of them graham cracker crusts, brush it with egg whites, then fill it with chocolate pudding and bits of quality chocolate, then cover it in marshmallows and toss that fucker in the oven.
God damn that's livin' the good life right there, son.

I think fatty foods will be the least of the bad things that will be entering our bodies that night.
dongs.
Also, can we have a tentative date hammered out soon? I was going to boston sometime in june, and wanted no scheduling conflicts.
And should someone let slungsolow know? He hasn't been on in a while, but his efforts at the aborted dcpax last time around was admirable.
I'll try to get in touch with him, but he has to sign some kind of a contract saying that this time he won't spendthe whole night trying to make-out with me after he gets drunk.
Seriously.

How about the chuck e. cheese in laurel?
ha ha ha when has that ever worked
We had the PA Potluck in Towson before the first Penny Arcade Expo was held.
The event included, at one point, the entire house getting IP banned because of the sheer volume of drunken posting going on.
It was definitely Extreme.
I'm talking dragons, a cockfight, tits, whiskey
to the max
I'm there

about 10 minutes south of Waldorf in LaPlata
as for burning things, I have a large pile of yard waste that needs burning badly
also, this gathering would be subject to GF approval

Also, we should LARP. Dressed as Furries.

If he's leaving end of June, this does not leave much time.
5 pounds of awesome in a 4 pound bag.
Cue the klezmer?

And fireworks? Are those ok in maryland nowadays? I see packs of fireworks being sold at gas stations every once in a while.
And a human sacrifice?

Ha ha ha.
You live with your parents.
Well, the offer to at least drive you still stands.
You could always look in to greyhound and/or trainpricing. It might take a little longer, but it can be fun.
